Unless you are trying to get rid of this you need not expect health, happiness, or freedom. ~ Fox, Emmet. Find and Use Your Inner Power (p. 109). New Albany. Kindle Edition.

as you are to admire others
for your best qualities and actions—
for those times when you are blessed with grace,
when you rise to heights of courage
and selflessness far beyond
your expectations?
Seek those moments and don’t let
one bad mistake cancel out those moments!
